[sql] 'MOD' is not a recognized built-in function name

I wanted to use MOD function in SQL Server 2008R2 and followed this link but still got the message:

'MOD' is not a recognized built-in function name.

DECLARE @m INT
SET @m = MOD(321,11)
SELECT @m

Error:

Msg 195, Level 15, State 10, Line 2
'MOD' is not a recognized built-in function name.

Why I can't use this function from the link above?

for your exact sample, it should be like this.

DECLARE @m INT
SET @m = 321%11
SELECT @m

If using JDBC driver you may use function escape sequence like this:

select {fn MOD(5, 2)}
#Result 1

select  mod(5, 2)
#SQL Error [195] [S00010]: 'mod' is not a recognized built-in function name.

In TSQL, the modulo is done with a percent sign.

SELECT 38 % 5 would give you the modulo 3

It can be done using % operator. i.e. SELECT 50 % 5
